Blink-182, Korn and other news and notes
Blink breakup?
Over the weekend, Dave Navarro started a whirlwind with a post stating Blink-182 had broken up. After fans verbally attacked him, Navarro withdrew his statement. However, now it seems like he wasn't far off.
The band's Web site says:
"For over a decade, Blink-182 has toured, recorded and done non-stop promotion all while trying to balance relationships with family and friends.To that end, the band has decided to go on an indefinite hiatus to spend some time enjoying the fruits of their labors with their loved ones. While there is no set plan for the band to begin working together again, no one knows what tomorrow may bring."
Indefinite hiatus? Why do they need to formally announce these things. Just say, "we're taking a break" and leave it at that. I'm sure they'll pull a Micheal Jordan and be back in a few years for a reunion show.
Head finds God
Korn guitarist Brian "Head" Welch has reportedly had a religious awakening and left the band.
A note on the band's Web site says, "Korn has parted ways with guitarist Brian Head Welch, who has chosen the Lord Jesus Christ as his savior, and will be dedicating his music pursuits to that end. Korn respects Brian's wishes and hopes he finds the happiness he is searching for."
The band is currently working on a new album, they hope to release in the fall.
Formerly The Quick
A while ago I posted a note about a band called The Quick - featuring former Spacehog singer Royston Langdon and former Blind Melon guitarist Rogers Stevens.
A note on the band's Web site says they have changed their name to "The Tender Trio." Stay tuned...
Shows in Winston
Been to the Ziggy's Web site recently, Triad residents?
Holy cow! There's quite a lineup coming down the road, as you can also tell from the updated concert calendar on your right ------>
Here are some of the highlights (those I'm hoping to review or interview are in bold):
Chevelle
Jimmy Cliff
Steve Vai
Black Label Society
John Popper Project
Tift Merritt
Travis Tritt
George Clinton
